  • This is tied with Star Trek TNG Best of Both Worlds: Part One's cliffhanger as the greatest cliffhangers of all time, in my opinion.

  • BW Megatron almost succeed of what his ancestor, the original Megatron have been trying to do for a very long time to destroy Optimus Prime. Fortunely, the plan was a complete failure.

  • That is one HELL of a cliffhanger.

  • Well all and all it was an awesome series. Loved it, collected a decent number of the figures that came out from it.

  • I was wondering when it first aired if it had any connection to the original transformers at all. There were a couple of episodes that hinted at a link to it but it wasn't until The Agenda that it was indeed the descendants of the Autobots and Decepticons that werre fighting.

  • @sabrestryke1 The writers and producers themselves weren't sure when they first started, which is why there were initially two moons - if it turned out to be Earth, they'd destroy one of the moons. It was at least partially dependent on Hasbro giving the okay.

  • i think that in one of these movies the decepyicons should win

  • @EMAN5436 It's a television series. They still have another season to go.

    Also, it's technically Predacons. They're just back in time as part of an elaborate plan made by the original (Decepticon) Megatron.

  • wasnt this from beast wars? soo wasnt optimas primes name optimus primal? and wasnt he a gorilla?...

  • @zander1116 This is from Beast Wars. The storyline of Beast Wars involves time travel, back to the time when the original 1984 Ark-crash Transformers are still offline. There is both Optimus Prime and Optimus Primal. They're not the same "person" though.

    This is Beast Wars Megatron "killing" G1 Optimus Prime, while Beast Wars Optimus Primal desperately rushes to stop him.

  • 1:02 That might be Jazz lying on his back in that shot.

  • i dont get why primal didnt help rinox. to me primal is weak

  • It was WTF for me when I watched this 11 years ago.

  • optimus prime's head is as big as BW megatron's entire body.whoa.

  • I think that's over acting...It's just optimus for god's sake...and there's a huge explosion 0.o

    so this is how primes' die huh?

    and wait,all the maximus?(is that right?) got electrified because of the explosion...but what about megatron...he was close to the cause of the explosion but he didnt got electrified? pshhhh...

  • @carlopunkz It's not electricity or a huge explosion, it's a temporal storm. As BW Megatron says, killing Optimus Prime alters history, including the outcome of the Autobot/Decepticon wars, and the existence of the Maximals themselves. Reality itself is coming undone, due to the temporal paradox it presents.

    BW Megatron is just theatrical. He likes a good prop, a good prophecy, and a good soliloquy.

  • @AeonMagnus owww i see now

  • @carlopunkz

    Didn't you hear what Optimus said at the end?

    "Time itself is all being destroyed!!"

  • @carlopunkz You're an idiot.

  • Unicoron be damn him!!! HOW DARE HE DESTROY OPTIMUS PRIME!!!

  • Yeesh, to Optimus Prime, death is like a child living next door to a world-weary old man; it won't leave him alone.

  • Comment removed

  • 0:33 SOUNDWAVE!!

  • You  know...maybe instead of just standing there they could have helped him open the door.

  • @ricemazter

    Omega: Sarcasm not appreciated.

    I'll give my everlasting respect to whoever can name the G! episode that's from.

  • @babylon218 "The God Gambit"

  • @AeonMagnus yep.

  • why does everyone have jetpacks in this show??? are they to lazy to walk!

  • @rantardekokolokokoko The Transmetals have a third, vehicle mode. For some it's a rolling, ground-based vehicle mode (eg: Rattrap, Tarantulas), for others it's a flight mode (Optimus Primal, Cheetor).

  • @AeonMagnus oh right, thanks

  • @AeonMagnus 0:35, IT'S SOUNDWAVE!

  • @QuickSilver121581 why? the writters were amazing the strory and script was far more mature and intelligent then the orginal series yet they still stayed true to the orginal characters as they are seen as the decendents of the orginal g1 transformers, they worship them like gods!. Both series are great but beastwars has the character development and story edge in my view. It was made for adults and children whislt the orginal was made moreso for children with basic concepts.

  • that g1 prime

  • and when prime wakes up again, his gonna grab the little shit and pound the living crap out of him :)

  • @QuickSilver121581 The Great War was Megatron's original uprising, so occurred before the original G1 Transformers left Cybertron.

    The Maximals and Predacons are the future descendents of the Autobots and Decepticons, from a few hundred years in the future. In this future, (most of?) the Transformers have taken on smaller bodies. In the first episode of Beast Wars, a small group of them travel back in time to some point between the Ark crash and the re-awakening in 1984.

  • @QuickSilver121581 The Transformers took on smaller, more energy-efficient forms some time in the future, during the "Great Upgrade" from Autobot/Decepticon to Maximal/Predacon.

  • Soundwave on 0:34

  • I... don't exist? damn...

  • Optimus Prime just HAS to time in every single continuity, right?

  • Is this war on cybertron?

  • @Mattformer7 This is Beast Wars, not War for Cybertron. It takes place in the G1 continuity, some time between the Autobot ship crashing on Earth and the Transformers being re-awakened in 1984.

  • wheres this continued? i need the link

  • @starscreamsgirl989 BW: Optimus Prime meets Optimus Primal

    watch?v=wu_pF719_4g

  • @AeonMagnus uh lol dude i already saw that way before i watched this clip and i actually want the episode where G1 optimus TALKS... cuse i've seen it on another other clip somewhere

  • @starscreamsgirl989 I don't believe he talks during Beast Wars. In Beast Machines' "Sparkwar" multi-parter, G1 Optimus Prime supposedly speaks to Primal, but it's a Megatron trick.

  • @AeonMagnus oh, really? thats trippy but then again anything by megatron is cool and awesome so I'LL GO FIND THAT EP IF IT KILLS MEH!!!!!!!!!!

  • @starscreamsgirl989 If I can find it, I'll upload a clip of that scene.

  • @AeonMagnus yayyyyyyyyy :3

  • is megatron also cell?

  • I never thought Megatron was breaking one of the walls and talking to the viewer when I watched this.

  • didnt realise bw megatron was this small...just stand on him like a bug and be done with it...due to his small size maybe an insect would have been a better alt mode,,,,the frigin midget

  • @damo9811 Sure, he's small compared to the G1 models, but his type were specifically designed to have conservative forms, as opposed to the "archaic, energon guzzling" models.

  • @gonotgentleman true enough i suppose...just looks a bit wierd

  • I loved the revelation that Megatron knew all along about where and when they were and was just unwilling to take the drastic step of messing with history. It just seems cool that the only reason the bw lasted as long as they did was because of megatron's reluctance.

  • Beast Wars was so awesome. They should made a new series to connect G1 with Beast Wars.

  • @rcp120 The "it's prehistoric Earth, OMG the Ark, oops here's the 1984 cast in stasis" thing not G1 connecting enough?

  • @AeonMagnus, the connection to G1 in the secend and third season of beast wars was great, but many folks want to know what exactly happend between the end of the great war and the start of the beast wars. pax cybertronia, the great update from autobots/decepticons to maximals/predacons, etc.

  • @AeonMagnus i know right? I even got that when I was a kid. I need to get the 1st season on dvd.

  • THIS WAS THE BEST MONOLOGUE

  • BW Megatron risked his own existence as well, or his namesake at the very least; there were quite a few times where Optimus Prime saved G1 Megatron's life in times of desperation.

  • MEGATRON, HURRY UP AND BLOW HIS FACE OFF ALREADY!!

  • he dont kill prime just get his face primal saved him

  • now i walk these hollowed walls.....a conquerer - Megatron

    i came, i saw, and i conquered - Alexander the Great

  • Best scene.

    

  • Instead of telling Rhinox to hurry up Optimus, why don't you open the doors yourself or at least give him a hand you asshole?

  • Hmmm Pussycat Yeeeess

  • a couple questions if u please one how many megatrons where there in all transforner series all together two what episode is thios i wanna see it and three is megatron jay leno in disguise trying to destry conans chances of ever getting the tonightshow agian?

  • @kellyberry There are 8 major Megatrons: G1, Beast Era, Robots in Disguise, Unicron Trilogy, Movie, Animated, Shattered Glass and Prime. However, most of those major continuities consists of numerous sub-continuities. For example, the US Marvel G1 comics were different to the G1 cartoon. So it's like there are "copies" in each sub-continuity. There are also a handful of miscellaneous lesser Megatrons.

    As always, the episode title is in the notes.

    I can't help you with the last one.

  • "The Autobots, lose. EVIL, TRIUMPHS! And you... YOU... NO LONGER EXIST!!!" =''D

  • i like g1 more, but i will say beast wars had a MUCH better megatron

  • When I was a kid, that part gave me bad dreams for 2 months... It haunts me now when I saw it again on this video. Good times... :)

  • @Armalizilto i kno and the part that freaked me out and gave me nightmares was when optimus prime evolved when he merged with the other spark. it didnt help that i got it for christmas (>_<)

  • Most epic cliffhanger ever!

  • @bluerock1138 Well the cliffhanger from Reboot was one as well, at least Beast Wars finished their with a final season.

  • This is possibly the best TF moment ever. I never been so shock about a cliffhanger before, even more than Picard being a borg or Starbuck being is alive is. Berserk's ending or the last FMA episodes come close.

  • One of the best Megatron moments ever.

  • @FanimusMaximus Arguably, THE best Megatron moment ever.

  • 3:42 where did Megatron's weapon gone?

  • this is BS

  • @RileyTNTlego No, it's CGI.

  • @AeonMagnus No, it's epic story telling and the best of the best of the Transformers saga. >_>

  • no he means that there is no way megatron could even scratch optimus much less blast his head open.

  • @MrHoppers002 Are you sure that's what he means? Cos you read more words into it than he used letters.

  • bs to me is bull sh*t. never heard of anyone use bs for anything other than that. :)

  • @MrHoppers002 What I mean is, how do you know what he's calling bullshit on? Beast Wars as a whole, the "no way megatron could even scratch optimus", trying to alter the past, or something else entirely?

  • it's called reading between the dotted lines my friend. :)

  • My all time favorite scene in all transformers History

  • ok so the autobots and decepticons are frosen in stasis lock (at the start of g1) so beast wars is set in prehistoric earth

  • Yes, if you watch the G1 "More Than Meets The Eye" pilot, Beast Wars occurs sometime during the first commercial break, between the crash of the Ark and the "Four million years later" graphic.

  • Ah yes, Megatron's Lament. This and the creation of Dinobot II are his greatest monolouges. 

  • If you are going to destroy the universe, then you might as well do it in style

  • how is mega tron so small if he transforms into a dinosaur. im pretty sure dinosaur are fuck huge

  • Maximals and Predacons are much smaller than Autobots and Decepticons.

    The Beast Warriors transform into scale versions of animals. Megatron transforms into an undersize dinosaur for the same reason Rattrap transforms into an oversize rat. Not to mention the insect and spider Predacons...

  • @lukin6t9 Over the years of the great wars, Energon became more rare (see the G1 series for that), thus energy maximization and conservation was important, hence smaller more efficient technology was created. Hence why you had the micro masters (I think that's what they were called) in the G1 spring up.

  • Here's a question. When does Beast Wars/Machines take place? I know it's after G1 (well before they went through the time warp thing), but how far after G1, the US series or the Japanese continuation (Headmasters, Powermasters, etc)?

  • Apparently only a few hundred years.

  • why are they so much bigger

  • The Transformers took on smaller, more energy-efficient forms some time in the future, during the "Great Upgrade" from Autobot/Decepticon to Maximal/Predacon.

  • This is probably a dumb question, but how is Optimus Prime in the form of an Earth-built semi-truck four million years before human semi-trucks are invented? Shouldn't he be in a native Cybertronian form?

  • Same way he has an Earth-styled robot mode in the opening minutes of G1's pilot, "More Than Meets The Eye". This episode maintains consistency with the G1 cartoon, in which characters looked the same in robot mode, even if their alt-mode was different (ie: Wheeljack, Bumblebee, Jazz, Soundwave and the Seekers). We never saw Optimus Prime's Cybertronian alt-mode.

    All part of the fun of a hastily-prepared cartoon (G1) in which extras like backstory and Cybertronian bodies were added on later.

  • @AeonMagnus

    Thanks man.

  • I saw Starscream and Soundwave

  • YEEsssssss

  • Megatron! What have you done! You changed the future! You've created a Time Paradox!

  • if prime was alive, bw megz would be a brown, purple and chrome puddle of energon by now!lol!

  • Would have been better if you edited out the stupid maximals completely. If it was all pure megatron, and Decepticon glory.

  • I think this is the most epic or at least the second most epic moment of beast wars.

  • I wonder...Would Megatron have wiped himself and all the other Predacons out of existence if his plans to kill Optimus Prime had succeeded? I mean, would the Decepticons winning the Great War lead to the Predacons never coming into existence or would Megs and every Pred of Decepticon descent still be okay?

  • Nobody can be sure. That's why it was "the ultimate risk, for the ultimate prize."

  • I'd be more worried about the lack of a matrix when Unicron shows up.

    Then again, this would be more of a "just as planned" moment for the council, really.

  • Geniusbob hit the nail on the head. With no Optimus Prime, there'd be no Matrix with which to stop Unicron. Autobots, Decepticons, Maximals and Predacons would all be annihilated. At least, that's the theory.

  • However, notice that the time storm has absolutely no effect on Megatron himself like it did the rest of the Maximals, and Maximal-originating Predacons (coughBlackArachniacough). This would suggest that the Decepticons might have found a way to defeat Unicron, even had Prime, the Autobots and the Matrix been long gone. But alas, speculation is just that,.

  • @Blazieth But wouldnt the cons have their Heart of Cybertron though? I remember in a G1 episode the bots were getting beat by Megatron when he found it inside the Nemesis.

    Maybe that could be the con version of the Matrix.

  • Well, they could've taken the Matrix from Prime's corpse.

  • @geniusbob I know in one of the video games where if Megs have won, Unicron eats Cybertron in 2005 because no one had the matrix.

  • @warriorking4ever if megatron [bw] had succeded then there never would have been a war as the autobots would have been leaderless and there fore wiped from existence but as the decepticons would have still been around the predacons would still have evolved from the decepticons....i think

  • If Primal and the rest aided Rhinox in getting the door open they might have been able to save Prime.

  • i remember this

  • wowsers!

  • bw megatron take monologing to the next level

  • @katch26

    and does it with style =D

  • You know what's odd, the fact megatron has mammal like teeth in his robot form yet primal has reptilian like teeth, shouldn't him and meg's switch teeth lol, just sayin.

  • i love how they linked beastwars to g1 and i wonder how big would bw megatron be standing next to g1 skyfire

  • i think if you take the toys of G1 Seaspray and put him next to the G1 Skyfire toy thats about BW Megatron next to Prime now take maybe something like Darth Vader action figure case and i thin that whould be about skyfires size.

  • Best Beast Wars moment, and one of the best Transformer moments of the past 25 years.

  • this was probably the greatest moment in the BW series, they managed to connect G1 with BW even though the original idea was to have a new series ignoring the past ones, too bad it's the only series to have accomplished that ever since the end of the american head masters =(

  • 0:16 if you look in the top left corner I think it is G1 Megatron

    0:23 Thundercracker or someone

    0:27 Starscream!

    0:35 Soundwave!

  • 1:44 that is so fucking funny

  • optimus primal pudo haber ayudado en abrir la puerta

  • the transformers in this are like minibots while the real autobots and decepticons are like the main ones

  • optimus is not a proper role model now is he?lol

  • I never followed beast wars, so i only caught a bit of this out of context, but the way they totally tied the continuity together with this episode really stuck with me to the point where I, at some point, really want to revisit the entire series. I'm thinking Beast Wars was much better than it had any right to be.

  • SOUNDWAVE :035

  • I would have to say this moment is the best for Beast Wars, mainly because of the situation it is but it shows even threw his megalomaina Megatron is fighting for his people's freedom.... in a sick and twisted way anyway

  • Man, Megatron's TINY compared to the Autobots and Decepticons!

    He must be about Bumblebee's size!

  • Smaller. They are no bigger than humans for the most part. As Megatron pointed out in that clip, the Autobots and Decepticons were "Archaic Energon guzzlers." The Predacons and Maximals with their smaller size require less energy and are more advanced than their predacessors despite the size.

  • lol yeah,i think that's obvious.

  • this scene really got to me.

  • This is one of the best scenes in the series. Of course it being in the greatest Season of Beast Wars, that is expected. This shows Megatron's total madness to the fullest.

    BW Megatron often made his G1 name-sake look sane.

  • yes... yes...

  • Are the Predacons and Maximals really that small compared to the Autobots and Decepticons?

  • Yep.

  • @ishyk10 they are because the atobots are cars and the preacons and maxamals are animals

  • Not just that though. The Maximals and Predacons were already that size before they arrived on Earth and took on animal modes. Some time in the future, the Autobots and Decepticons go through the "Great Upgrade" into Maximals and Predacons, which involves taking on smaller, more energy efficient forms.

  • SOUNDWAVE YES OMG YES YES YES.

    Atleast BEAST WARS acknowledged him...unlike CERTAIN MOVIES

  • if ur talkin rotf, he was in it

  • i kno,Houndoom88 if ur going to say stuff about movies y dont u watch it first then talk about it dumb ass

  • and he DID have a vocode voice, it was VERY slight,but if u listen closly u could hear it

  • No spoilers, please. Like many others, I haven't seen it yet.

  • sry didnt know if that was a spoiler

  • @Houndoom88 It's true. when he does it, it doesn't ruin all of his plans .. . or at least not in this episode. it's been way to long for me to remember if it ever ruins it any other time. but kudos on not having it ruin eeverything here.

  • prime was revived in G2 tho... which starscream was dead long time ago

  • soo what goes wrong?

    to megatron`s plan i mean.

  • Wait a few minutes and see.

  • ah O_O

  • Well that's no good.
